here in california we have almost everything available @ japanese supermarkets here. not too much different from japan. i feel kinda bad that others don't have the same opportunity. |

here in houston
we have "ONE" japanese supermarket >.>''
who regularly import from san diego, san fran, and japan xD
sadly.... we only have one =.=''.... (in the entire expanse of houston)
and countless chinese/american markets selling crud like the artificially produced "soya"
sauce

Mirin is called for in like all these recipes! I have to order that soon, but I haven't tried yuzu yet. Ramune....we found that on a class trip and drank it like water. It's good I suppose.

Personally, the main fun of Ramune is the novelty of the bottle more than anything else. The drink itself is... just a 'meh' >.>''' nothing special really.
And... good luck getting some fresh yuzu xD
I believe Yuzu concentrate is kinda expensive....
and to find it fresh in the states....is.... almost unimaginable >.>''
Although my boss DOES grow Yuzu in his backyard xD
*The aroma released from the zest of freshly peeled yuzu is simply FANTASTIC!*
hope your stew goes well btw x]
